Why does Riddick break his leg at the very beginning of the movie?


Did I miss something or am I just retardedz?

His leg is already badly broken. He places his foot in between 2 rocks so he can set the bone. Then he uses the shin guard on his armor and the 2 metal spikes to "cast" his leg.

After he sets his leg they go in to a flash back with Vaako (Karl Urban) his henchman Krone. Riddick want to go to Furya. Krone takes him to the barren planet where Riddick has to fight the three guards and Krone. Krone shoots the fault lines in the cliff rock so it breaks away. Riddick falls to his (presumed) death but "only" gets a broken leg and scrapped up a bit....

Did you really miss that whole sequence?
The pop corn must have been 'real' good...

unbelievable he's still alive considering he dropped off the cliff

the beginning of the film had a vulture like bird picked on his hand while he's buried by the rubble that presumed from the fall. I had to shake my head..

I know Riddick can heal fast, but it always bothered me that he healed a broken leg in 24 hours!

It's all part of being Furyan, they were a remarkably strong race and very resourceful.
